Multiple Nxlog.exe Process (WIN) | Log collection solutions

Hello, we’re looking at using multiple instances of nxlog.exe on the same Windows machine. What is the supported method for this please?

If I create a new process we receive the ERROR Service is already running log entry.

Thanks

You will need to set up a separate configuration file with a pidfile for each instance and configure the service to use those.
